She was housekeeper on McMillan and Wife, probably when she was also Ida. Joe was cute. I can't recall what their problem was, to cause the divorce.Those jean purses and shoulder bags were popular during most of the 1970s. They were of various styles. I read where David Grogh and Valerie Harper were platonic friends off the show, up until he died.

Jeans handbags were very popular during 1973-76, I was a teenager then, and never used a purse then, but remember other females having them. Mom had one, too. That plastic on everything! Imagine sitting on it in July with no a/c. Rhoda is even insecure about Joe's parents. Joe is very cute, looks like Tom Jones, but he reminds me of Curt Willard on The Waltons, who married Mary Ellen. Ida is hilarious on this. I bet the way Ida and Rhoda acted in this ep made him feel as though he was in the twilight zone. He always seemed to like Ida though, despite her snoopy behavior. While single, Rhoda often seemed to be after Joe, to the point of smothering him.
